Miss Jane Addams lectured to a crowded house at the Bowersock Theater last evening. She was introduced by Mayor Bishop, and spoke for nearly an hour on industrial questions, the origin of settlement work, Bull House, and equal suffrage. Over the audience were University students.
"Settlement work had its orig. with university men in England," said Miss Addams, "who went from Oxford to the East side in London, and lived there to study their needs. These men demanded for the people, better houses, better schools and better labor laws, for children especially. These needs were carried to Parliament rather than to the landlords."
Miss Addams then compared conditions in Chicago with those in London, and told of the establishment of Hull House, in the heart of the foreign district of Chicago. She told of the work done by the women of Chicago, with playgrounds, city nurses, and county poorest妇女. The work, Miss Addams was made famous by the women, before it went into the hands of the government, thus justifying the claim that women should have a part in the government.
INFLUENCE OF PLAY GROUNDS
of the playground work, Miss Adams said. "The amount of juvenile crime is less within six blocks of the playgrounds than in other parts of the city.
The children are trained for citizenship rather than as a gang, with a leader. On the playgrounds everybody must have a square deal."
Miss Addams is an easy speaker, and she charmed her hearers. After the lecture many of the audience went up to the platform to meet this "greatest woman of America." Mayor and Mrs. Bishop and Chancellor and Mrs. Wang, and the Reverend Olympia Brown-Wills received with Miss Addams.
